Bunnerong Power Station is a demolished former coal-powered electric power station in the south-eastern Sydney suburb of Matraville New South Wales Australia. When the last generating units were commissioned it was the largest power station in the southern hemisphere with a capacity of 375 megawatts (MW) from eleven turbo-alternators. It was able to supply up to one third of the state’s electricity needs at the time.
